White House lied about Abramoff contacts

In other news, water is wet, and Maru is drinking right now.

Preznit Honor 'n' Integritude met the convicted lobbyist at least six times and lied about it:

The White House had stronger ties to disgraced superlobbyist Jack Abramoff than it has publicly admitted, according to a draft congressional report released Monday.

[Snippy the Chimp] met Abramoff on at least four occasions the White House has yet to acknowledge, according to the draft report by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee; the White House had previously acknowledged only two.

There's also a doozy of a piece at dKos, "New Abramoff Plea is Trouble for McCain and the GOP"

Eric Alterman: "Yesterday on Fox News, the name 'Rezko' was mentioned 19 times, and the name 'Abramoff' zero times, according to Lexis."
